VU4 Andaman & Nicobar Islands DXpedition – Call for Team Members
Join the VU4 Team for a Rare Activation + 49th SEANET Convention, Port Blair
Why VU4? Why Andaman & Nicobar Now?
The Andaman & Nicobar Islands, VU4, remains one of the most wanted DXCC entities worldwide. Demand is especially high from North America and on the low bands, making this activation a top priority for the global DX community.
Club Log Most Wanted – VU4 Rankings:
| Category / Band / Mode | Rank |
|---|---|
| North America Overall | #47 |
| North America West Coast | #69 |
| North America East Coast | #45 |
| North America 160m | #10 |
| 80m Band | #23 |
| 10m SSB | #30 |
| 40m SSB | #16 |
With these rankings, VU4 is critical for 5-Band DXCC, DXCC Challenge, and low-band DXers. This activation will focus on maximizing QSOs with NA and giving low-band and SSB operators a real shot at VU4.
